Cambridge Fire Department Saves Hundreds of Millions of Dollars of Art at Harvard University

Cambridge MA Fire Department responded to the new Harvard University Art Museum, about 100 feet from the fire headquarters, to save hundreds of millions of dollars worth of art. Though the city was in the middle of clearing snow from the previous day, the department was able to act in time. These images were captured at about 3:30 PM on Tuesday February 3, 2015.
